Whether you love or hate the style, there is no denying Zakk plays with extreme passion and impressive skill. He is literally playing the guitar with his entire body. If more musicians injected this amount of body language into their playing, we'd be enjoying an incredible golden age as fans.
Zakk has been one of my biggest influences. To me he’s one of the greatest of all time. He plays the F’ outta the guitar but still maintains a sense of soul to his playing even when he’s playing pentatonic’s at lightning speed. That’s not easy to do.
just got a friend into ozzy that only listens to rap. he went to a concert and when he came back he said "man there was this biker guy with a swirl guitar that was just awesome. i need to find out who that was." i said "dude you just saw zakk wylde." it was just funny that even someone who doesnt know anything about ozzy or sabbath or black label still notices the awesomeness.
I have watched this atleast 500 times lmao. I love it. Let alone the fact that this is off the top of his head. Dude is a legend. So glad I got to see him with ozzy. Keep it up bro. Love all ur stuff. Legendary
I mean jimi Hendrix used the minor pentatonic scale a lot. And I dont think anyone would refer to Jimi's playing as boring. Also dont think I've ever heard anyone call any scale ever boring let alone the pentatonic. Minor pentatonic is like the most versatile scale in the world haha. Literally used in every single genre. I know u arnt saying it is boring or anything and that this was just a joke comment.. just couldnt ever see a guitar teacher saying that and I like ranting lol
His left hand does a lot of his muting of the other strings, it's kind of amazing how little his left moves considering the work it's doing. Zakk is the man
I have watched this about 30 times and am mesmerised every time.... Obviously outstanding. Superb 5*****. Artistic. I've always loved rock music but this is the best. Look at the concentration....
Where not worthy Where not worthy Where not worthy Where not worthy Just a God on guitar I'm happy I got the opportunity to see him play in my life time just a true honor
@@accain1314 Best and most legendary. YES YES THERE ARE PLAYERS WHO SEEM ‘BETTER’, but Zakk puts his entire soul into his style and it means it’s better. It comes from the core
The comments on this are great! I saw BLS a few years ago and they were every bit as good as you'd expect. I was really impressed how he walked into the middle of the crowd at the back of the venue and proceeded to improv-shred for about 10 minutes while everyone formed a circle around him and got a close up look of a barbarian warlord wearing a kilt.
So inspiring, every time i see Zakk Wylde i am driven to my guitar...without fail.He is my pre-practice mentor and has taught me so much just by watching him play. Fucking love the guy!
he doesn't have to deject s*** man only has to do is some ads and his f****** play that thing that he's making f****** love to it and he's going to be set for life
its flowing thru him, pure bliss, energy, a state somewhere up there, of course its an bodily experience for him, he mastered the guitar long time ago, now he just uses it to open another portal to another dimension and pulls in limtiless energy, we only see a man playing guitar 🤩
Esse bicho tem uma competência, e uma disciplina, que fazem dele um dos gigantes no Hall da fama, Hard Rock, heavy metal, blues! muito redondo, deixa o ozzy tranquilo, nível HARD, domínio de dar inveja sobre uma pentatonica. Postura, acho que todo mundo curte o ZAKKY, E ELE MERECE PARABÉNS!
You can tell straight from the get go that you have no idea what you are talking about.... aside from the stupid uneducated comment about the no effects.... the fact that you censor yourself, and claim this is good shit, proves your ineptitude.... i hope you have grown the fuck up in this year.
Guys, I think he's refering to the last video Zakk did. There was too much chorus and it was over compressed. This one is quite minimal compared to it.
His improvisation shows that you dont need to be a very knowledgeable (theory based) musician but be a musician from the heart....its then you create something as beautiful as this...
@@jdogghoe not to mention he's in key the entire song lol apparently he makes it look that easy, but people are here in these comments saying things like, 'there might as well be no background track, this is just a random shred session.' they obviously have a tenuous grasp, it that, on music theory themselves.
Heres the thing. He's pentatonic all the way. Yet, it doesn't sound like he's just running scales. That's where music theory comes into play. The backing track was icing on the cake. It was necessary for the experience.
ZAKK was looking a little heavy last I saw him on TMS. Glad he's trimmed down! He's an awesome guitarist and I hope he's around making cool kick ass music for many more years! Very cool!
The 2 grand or more in pedals and being plugged directly into a mixer kinda helps a lot. Not taking away from his sheer talent. But realistically, you could own all this insane gear and never be able to play like him.
Whether you love or hate the style, there is no denying Zakk plays with extreme passion and impressive skill. He is literally playing the guitar with his entire body. If more musicians injected this amount of body language into their playing, we'd be enjoying an incredible golden age as fans.
Zakk actually puts his physical strength into his playing! Fucking insane man! That wide vibrato is killer! 👌🤘
The guy can either shred or play soulful and bluesy which makes him elite . LEGEND
or both at once
His vibrato is just insane!! Such a great player and song writer
He's a f-ing great singer too. Listen to some Pride & Glory from way back when
I want to live life the way he plays his guitar!
🔥
It's been 4 years since you posted that. Hope the years have been good to you

sad.....you need to see a doctor kid
@@mr.mikehunt4286 lmao sub-par troll
Its more than influence,its inspiration for life,S.M.D.F!
Im too,Im suffering with,"Zakk Wylde brain disorder",haha,The doctor said this
Zakk is the marathon runner of the shred world. His endurance is unmatched.
I think Yngwie still has him beat.
tambor76 I like zakk better, I think he has more technique
YordMusic buckethead could keep up
tambor76 although I love Yngwie but I just saw Generation axe. The Wylde shred marathon is almost ridiculous. Almost.
TheOnebigmick , you're kidding! Moronic comment award goes to...YOU!

That's a good memory.
Never too late to find out!
St. Zakk
yeah he's undeniable! takes a behemoth guitar god like him to replace RR
u r going to heaven for doing this
What did the pentatonic scale ever do to you Zakk? Savage
It looked like he was playing in a box. In E as fast as he could. He's good but not my style because well, I like style.
That solo just gave sight to the blind! 🤘🏻😎
you know zakk wylde is a shredder thats his style thats how he does things so dont click on a video of him and complain about why he shredds so much
Aleem Smith yep because he can....
right? same with yngwie malmsteen people click his videos just to shit on him knowing full well they arent into shred.
Aleem Smith no doubt!
Haha. Agreed
Don't a lot of lead players shred though? I mean technically speaking.
He puts more drama in one bar than most guitarists in a whole solo.
Dude is dive bombing with a fixed bridge ffs.
Pentatonik dramah
drama for sure, he aint no Randy and if anything a Ozzy barbie doll
@@mr.mikehunt4286 Zakk is the only one who actually comes anywhere close to Randy Rhoads, they both have the heart and dedication to it
@@garybenoit3220I love the guy and most of everything he's done but this solo wasn't it....
zakk has the gift that even though he plays the pentatonic scale a lot, you never get bored of listening to him!
If he didn't sell his soul to the devil he definitely killed him to play like that in 1 take
@@willdennis6023 the devil sold his soul to Zakk
I'm sick of. I was just waiting for something new besides the pentatonic scale. It's a mystery to me why he's great...
I thought he was going to cover the WAR version of "low rider" OOps.
Still trying to hear it in there somewhere, no luck
Joe satriani played the War version of Low Rider in a live concert I seen him do and it was a real kick ass rock guitar jam.
Yeah, me, too. I was pleasantly surprised.
i was thinking the cheech and chong low rider song :/
I have watched this atleast 500 times lmao. I love it. Let alone the fact that this is off the top of his head. Dude is a legend. So glad I got to see him with ozzy. Keep it up bro. Love all ur stuff. Legendary
That guitar is living the dream! God level achieved.
He plays that guitar like it owes him money.
about tree fiddy
lol
GODDAMN LOCH NESS MONSTER!
which reminds me... has Shake ever paid him back for the happy birthday gig?
Thunderbeast Videos Your comment is as brilliant as Zaks playing. I'm going to have to borrow it .Thanks.
He was just tuning the guitar..... You're amazinf Zakk, you're my favourite guitarist ✌️🇮🇹🎶
Guitar Teachers + some people: Pentatonic is boring, it's a beginner's scale...
Zakk Wylde:
He sung with the the best Grammy .just he i went to school with him i was 0kn f0agd ripper will de or randy Rhodes or di
I can guarantee he plays it better than any of the though.
I mean jimi Hendrix used the minor pentatonic scale a lot. And I dont think anyone would refer to Jimi's playing as boring. Also dont think I've ever heard anyone call any scale ever boring let alone the pentatonic. Minor pentatonic is like the most versatile scale in the world haha. Literally used in every single genre.

The pentatonic scale seems to be Zack’s favorite.
hes playing more than just the minor penta here ;)
I went to high school in Los Angeles with someone whos family was friends with Zach Wylde and his family. Said he is the nicest human being on earth.
Gotta love Zakk's vibrato!
Strength, speed and power!
Zheng Li pure man root domination
Strength Determination Merciless Forever
Emotion?????...fuck off....
~zakk
Incredible! I usually loose interest in guitar solos after 10-20 sec, this had me riveted the whole way through.
I'm always amazed how clean his picking is considering it looks like it should be a mass of noise lol
Me too.
yeah his playing is very clean for how fast he plays
His left hand does a lot of his muting of the other strings, it's kind of amazing how little his left moves considering the work it's doing. Zakk is the man
Practice
That's what I love about his playing. You hear the goddamn pick hitting the string.
Rock on Zakk Wylde. Freaking beast on the guitar.
I love the sound of his emgs their so tasteful to hear😊
Guitar needs a cigarette after that...😎
indeed, Zakk gave that guitar a good fuckin
The smoking guitar
Hand it over to Keith Richards...
man you made one of the best comments i've ever read. thanks for that!
lol
That’s fuckin funny!
Thumbs up for that guitar and strings for taking up that punishment like a champ!
He plays with so much emotion while playing so accurately at insane speed
Zakk is probably one of the very best rock guitarists in the world
He's copied many styles but he can really ping those notes almost too much😉
He plays so quickly it actually plays with your eyes at times. Like he's on fast forward.
Zakk is a phenomenal guitar player without a doubt. ❤️❤️❤️
Devan Gunaseelan
Hell yes bro
Pentatonics- the true soul of rock and roll
Smoking, clean, on the edge chops, relentless progression, Guaranteed to wake the living dead! Beyond love.
